Confidence is an issue we must all confront.
As a student, it is difficult to judge one's own talents & downfalls. I find that the more time I spend on a drawing, the more I begin to doubt myself. The longer I seek perfection in the marks I am making, the more disappointed I become with inaccuracies.
I have always preferred to draw in a gestural manner. Allowing myself to submit to the materials & the subject somehow gives me confidence. The imperfections this creates are appealing to me. If my subconscious is able to create something beautiful then I know that I am capable.
